Nike sues rapper Lil Nas X over ‘Satan shoes’ that have real blood in soles
The shoes, which contain a drop of human blood in the sole, went on sale Monday for $1,018 per pair. They are decorated with a pentagram and a reference to Luke 10:18, a Bible verse about Satan's fall from heaven.
Only 666 pairs were made available, and all were sold out shortly after going on sale.
Lil Nas X is not named as a defendant in the lawsuit. Shortly after the lawsuit was announced he posted a tweet showing a homeless Squidward from Spongebob Squarepants begging for change.
Theoretically, because of his video, the shoes went famous and got sold out in no time. I understand that spilling blood on them and shooting it goes against Nike rules. Still, he already got them incredible money for it. A lawsuit looks crazy. It's like the Jordan scandal once again. They got sold out fast, and when Jordan wanted to live, they filed a lawsuit against him. As the contract was broken, you can only get vintage Air Jordans from https://www.forstepstyle.com/collections/jordans/air-jordan-1/ or StockX.
